However, five million was quite enough.
People… They really don't consider their kin to be humans!
"Mr. Jigen, the Ultimate Demonic Mecha is almost ready!" Now only the Child from the prophecy is missing!
The huge engineering laboratory was flooded with bright light. Countless ninjas were busily scurrying around the giant room, each busy with their own work. Senju Tobirama stood high on the platform next to Ootsutsuki Isshiki. With glee in his voice, he said:
— It's finally ready. To create such a machine in such a short period of time... Uchiha Yue, you will still pay!
Ootsutsuki Isshiki exhaled with relief, staring into the distance.
There towered a gigantic, all-metal silhouette. Forged from steel, it nevertheless did not seem bulky — on the contrary, there was an exquisite mechanical beauty in its shapes. The mech's crimson eyes revealed the pattern of a Mangekye Sharingan, and in his hand he clutched a huge blue-and-white sword, one glance at which seemed to be able to dissect the very soul.
This was the Ultimate Demonic Mecha, their greatest masterpiece.
Its body is made of super-dense chakra alloy. The recipe for this unique material was developed by a group of scientists led by Senju Tobirama; it took unimaginable resources. The alloy turned out to be practically indestructible and had excellent chakra conductivity. Moreover, Ootsutsuki Isshiki personally tempered it with his strength, pushing its durability to the absolute limit.
Even Isshiki himself, having unleashed most of his might, was only able to leave a dent on it. Saturated with chakra, the alloy became even stronger: the impact left only small scratches on it. In addition, the chakra nourishment gave him the ability to heal himself.
It took almost all the reserves of special metals collected around the world to create the case.
Isshiki couldn't help but admire: on the verge of death, the people of the Shinobi world were able to unleash a truly monstrous force and create such a creation.
A huge crimson Sharingan with three tomoes shone in the chest of the mech. It wasn't a real eye, but a special biomechanical crystal construction. Its structure was exactly the same as Sharingan, embodying the tremendous power of this dojutsu.
Yes, the Uchiha family was indeed interrupted, but Konoha preserved some samples of their flesh and blood, including the tissues of Uchiha Sasuke and the Mangekyo Sharingan from Hatake Kakashi's eye socket.
After studying the Uchiha's blood and applying the latest biotechnologies, they created clones whose sole purpose was to grow new eyes for these weapons.
Since the power of dojutsu is essentially just a special form of chakra, with the help of Ootsutsuki Isshiki, scientists were able to synthesize its artificial counterpart. After starting production, they grew a lot of Sharingans with three tomoes. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time to develop a method for creating Mangekye.
However, that was more than enough. They created a giant biomechanical eye that mimics the Sharingan's structure and infused it with a colossal amount of dojutsu power so that it could use Izanami's technique.
And it wasn't an ordinary Izanami, but an Absolute Izanami. They believed that Uchiha Yue would never be able to escape from such a powerful dojutsu.
In the head of the mech, in the left eye socket, under the protection of a high-strength crystal, there was not a mechanism, but a real eye: a Mangekyo Sharingan, seized from Kakashi.
In the face of the threat of world destruction, it no longer mattered what those eyes meant to Kakashi. For the sake of saving the world, he *had to* give them up.
And finally, a giant sword that emitted a blue-white glow. The Sword of Soul Annihilation, forged from millions of fused souls, is the perfect weapon for their extermination.
An indestructible body, a soul-destroying sword, an immortality-canceling Izanami, and a space-distorting Mangekyo Sharingan. In any other era of the Shinobi world, this Ultimate Demonic Mecha would have been invincible. The so-called Tailed Beasts would seem like harmless kittens next to him. But is this power enough to defeat Uchiha Yue?
The answer was obvious: no.
Guns are just guns. As soon as this mech enters the Area of Dead Silence, it will probably immediately fail, never reaching Uchiha Yue.
Senju Tobirama and the others, of course, understood this.
If the problem of energy absorption by the Area of Dead Silence is not solved, any weapon for Uchiha Yue will be nothing more than a stationary toy.
So is there no way out? Is Uchiha Yue's ability to absorb energy really invincible?
No. There is a solution.
After deeply studying Uchiha Yue's abilities, they realized that his strength was constantly growing. In the beginning, he couldn't absorb souls, and he wasn't very efficient with kinetic and light energy. He was an ever-evolving monster.
However, it was precisely this ability to develop that was his main weakness. It meant that he was not omnipotent and was unable to absorb absolutely all energy without exception. The main evidence was the blurred edges of the Area of Dead Silence, as if covered with a mosaic.
If Uchiha Yue could absorb all the energy without a trace, they would not see a mosaic, but darkness, absolute darkness.
All this indicated that Uchiha Yue's absorption of energy depended on its density. The lower the density, the slower the process is. It is enough to remember that at the very beginning, when his ability had just awakened, living beings could be near him without consequences. It was completely different from the current situation, where just entering the Realm of Deathly Silence threatened imminent death.
It was just that at that time, the human body was too high-density an energy source for him.
